Joey inspired Pages

Joey was just being too adorable and posing for the camera.. I loved it.. I had some QP's that I was saving for just this occasion.. Here there are...

Beachy Sunday...

We had a blast at the beach....

Scrap Crazy Day

Spent too much time scrapping today!! My housework has suffered!! But it was so much fun!!!

I have been wanting to make this page so I could have it as my facebook album cover for my I Love IB album.. I know that is a crazy reason to do a scrap.. but I am crazy!!


Here is a cute page of one my sister's friends...

Now I am done scrapping and I am going to get to my housework!

Katie Pages...

I realized that I don't have as many pages of Katie as I do of Joey... Today I remedied that... It is hard to find a picture where she isn't making faces though...

First Time Submission

So I saw an ad for Scrapbook Trends Magazine... It was an open call for pages that were dedicated to Generations of Families... I remember that when Katie was born we got an awesome photo with the five generations of Cagg's... I went to google and got some cool information on the name, made up a page, and submitted it... If accepted it will be published in Novembers issue.. so lets keep our fingers crossed.. Here is the page!

Daddy's little gamers

Trying to get some older pictures of Katie scrapped and I found this gem of her and Jerry.. and then one of little Joey.. A page was born...

Family Fun

I made a Jedi spread of Joey and it made Katie jealous.. Since I had some awesome pictures of her posing as a jedi, it made it easy... I think it turned out great...

This next page is one of those that a picture is just screaming to have a page dedicated to it.. This is Joey and his Grandpa sharing some secrets...

Joey's Birthday Party

My little man turned one on Friday.. We had a little family get together with cake and presents.. He had a blast as did everyone else watching him... I created a little 3 page album of his happy day...

My little Jedi

I have been wanting to scrap this photo for a while, but had no inspiration to do it... I finally gave up and went google searching... I like the end product...


And I finally got around to scrapping the Easter pictures.. (I know Easter was 2 months ago.. it happens)... So a belated Hoppy Easter to all of you...

Fun & Sleep

Katie and her little friend from next door were outside playing yesterday... For once they decided to be nice and included their little brothers... So out Joey toddled to go play... It only lasted about 20 minutes, but any time when they are playing nicely is good to me...

After a busy morning of playing and dressing up, little Joey passed right out... His face was so peaceful... I love how this turned out...

Happy First Birthday Joey!!

Happy Birthday to my little man!!

created using Timmy Kit at Shell's Playground

I found this cute Quickpage and thought of this picture of my little man's toes!

Big Boy Car Seat

Part of turning a year old is getting rid of the little baby car seat and moving up to a big boy car seat... Since our little man is tall for a little thing he was very happy to be able to stretch his legs again... The huge smiles and giggles were enough to tell me he likes his new big boy car seat...

Superhero Katie

My daughter is a weird one... She will randomly dress up as her version of a superhero... She has been doing this since she was about 3 years old, although then she was a Soupy Hero... She started out with a Garfield costume cap and a blanket tied around her neck as a cape... From there it progressed to using sunglasses, scarfs & hats... Her latest creation is a knock off of Dr. D's Socky Shockey Suit... which means of course that she is covered in socks.... well at least they are clean... I couldn't help but scrap this adorableness that is my Superhero daughter...

Joseph Jon Video Montage

An adorable video picture collection of my adorable son. This was so easy to make using Windows Movie Maker.

Katherine Mary Video Montage

A cute little video I made to show how much Katie has grown in the last 8 years. So easy to make with Windows Movie Maker. Hope you enjoy!

California Cagg's Video Montage

I made this video as a present for those family members who are far away and don't get to see us very often. It was a big hit and super easy to make. All you need is pictures and song choices and Windows Movie Maker does the rest. Luckily we had this pre-installed with our computer when we bought it. It is a great program to make a quick little video to make everyone smile.

a day at the beach

Today is Wednesday... That means early dismissal for the schools... Katie also has a field trip tomorrow so no homework either... We decided to take a detour on our way home and stop by the beach. The water was still too cold for surfing or swimming, but it was a perfect sunny day for splashing in the shallows and playing in the sand... This was also Joey's first trip to the beach, he was loving running around barefoot in the sand chasing his sister...

PE Fun

So about a month ago Katie took pledges for the Jump Rope for Heart fundraiser.. they will be jumping on June 1st. So three times a week they go out and practice jumping during PE. I was lucky to get some nice action shots one afternoon.. that is until she saw me taking pictures and started posing... Ohh my little camera lover..

Bubba Goo

I always have so many pictures of Joey that it is hard sometimes to not spend all day long scrapping away. Here are some of the creations I have made of my little man.

Katie Boo

As I see Quickpages or Layouts offered online there are many times that I can see the completed page in my head immediately. When I saw this QP I immediately thought of Katie as a flower girl and the page was born.

Then there are the times when a picture is just screaming out to be scrapped.. This was an accident picture and I loved it... I think the page turned out beautifully..

Rachel's Birthday Present

I love my sister and she was having a down birthday this year.. So I decided to create a little pick me up and give it to her. She loved it and almost cried. My little sister does so much for everyone else it was nice to give her something special on her special day...
